Not I. The only ads I’m seeing from anything resembling a quasi-religious organization are from these people.
I’ve seen quite enough obese folks dancing in their underwear, Thank you. I’m goddamn disgusting myself, but I stay clothed and indoors. And I don’t dance.
Well, sometimes. When Ferrari wins.
I’d like to see that.
I had no idea what you and Son_of_a_Rich were referring to. Until I saw it and realized I’d heard it several times without looking up and had no idea it was AS. Amy, Amy, Amy. Surely your millions haven’t dried up to the point you have to stoop to this nonsense. Is it supposed to be a joke and I’m too dense to get it?
This commercial is annoying because (to put it politely) I don’t want to think about Amy Schumer’s twat.
Not very likely this season. 
Yes, that, too, absolutely. Very irresponsible.
“A good goat will do that for ya.”
Man, that would make me paranoid.
Couple ones I see too much of.
There’s one that runs a lot about a drug to treat the condition that makes your weiner bent. They even use a bend cucumber to illustrate the point. “You don’t have to live with this!” Makes me miss the days when you couldn’t even hint at that on TV.
And then, when we watch L&O on WeTV, there’s every single promo they run for their other shows. Love After Lockup, anything with the Braxtons, Marriage Boot camp (reality edition!), Growing up Hiphop. I don’t mean to come across judgmental about the subjects per se. People can like what they like. It’s the commercials. They are so horrible I would question the sanity of anyone that watches the shows based on the commercials! And they run them continuously. It’s like WeTV has almost no paid sponsors. All they do is plug their other shows. Doesn’t seem like there is much money in it.
What I really want to know is, during Love After Lockup et al, do they have endless commercials for Law and Order reruns?
GMC’s latest truck commercial, where everybody is so awestruck their mouths fall open. Okay, when the guy drops his tailgate and then lowers the step so he can walk his motorcycle down a ramp to unload it, and the other motorcycle guys are suitably impressed, that’s innovative enough to wow. But then a pickup is driving past a line of other trucks,and they all drop their tailgates and jaws in awe, I’m like whatever. And then a bear is so impressed by the truck hauling a camper trailer, it drops the salmon it caught. Riiighht.
And what really annoys me is they fawn all over their innovative professional tailgate that has the six functions, which is admittedly cool, but then they get to the price and only talk about the special discount on traditional tailgates. The only reason I’m interested in the truck is the trick tailgate.
The one I hate most of all is for some drug to treat bi-polar disorder. We see a little girl, sad that her mom can’t spend time with her over in the den of the half-a-million, beautiful house in the 'burbs, with her perfect husband doing arts and crafts with her, or playing out in the perfect backyard with the dog next to the swing-set and the lemonade stand that little Muffy put up – Mom’s bi-polar disorder instead keeps her in her art studio on the other side of the house doing pottery.
Because that’s exactly how bi-polar disorder presents and bi-polar sufferers are fully well-known to have made all the right life choices that would lead them to live the ideal suburban upper middle class life. Good that thing that pill exists so she can play fetch now.
Drives me nuts. No pun intended.
I think the point is that bi-polar can affect anyone, even well-to-do middle class mothers. But I get your point, bi-polar typically affects behavior and choices a lot more severely than just sitting in the back doing pottery.
She should be sitting in the back making a thousand clay ashtrays with no time for family or sleep because as soon as she can break into Kanye’s house and show them to him, he’ll give them to all his friends and order a thousand more from Mom and she’ll be famous and how dare you suggest she needs a pill.
I think the point is that drugs cost money and advertising is selective towards those who can pay vice those who might need. Which isn’t to say that such people don’t “need” only that there’s a Venn diagram of those who need and those who can pay, and I suspect such ads are targeted at that area of overlap.
True.
One is left wondering about the wording of the impolite response.
mmm
Nissan Sentra commercial: “Drop the taco! Get in the car!”
Me: “Park the car! I’m eating a taco!”
Kim Crawford has ads always showing women walking in slo-mo, with a obnoxious smirk on their faces= but the recent one has one women stealing a pair of cheap sunglasses and apparently not even paying for the wine.
So I guess the message is that too cool to pay for things.
Yeah, it does appear she just snatches up the wine and sunglasses and heads out the door.
I’m annoyed by Kroger’s commercial advertising their curbside grocery pickup. It starts with a chubby dude working out to the song “I’m too sexy”, which is dreadful enough. I hate that song to begin with. But said chubby guy is guzzling down some concoction from the blender while he is doing his aerobics. And amazingly, he’s out of food, and has to make a run to Kroger to get more, but doesn’t stop his workout or his guzzling.
Hey slobbo, if you weren’t constantly pouring goop down your throat, maybe you would lose weight.
